Hello!

I use a lint brush but still find it difficult to remove from all clothes. Is there any method to prevent lint sticking on clothes while washing or after washing? Thanks

  • The only way I have found to do it other than with a brush is to pop clothes in the dryer!


  • My old washing machine was great at removing lint, it seemed to catch it all and then I would just clean out the lint filter every now and again. Newer machines don’t seem to have lint filters and it just stays on the wash.


  • I find if there is an accident and i ve put a tissue in the wash or something like that then i just put the clothes through the dryer and that seems to remove it all.


  • Emptying pockets, washing clothes inside out & washing like colours together helps keep our laundry lint free.


  • Empty pockets – keep washing machine lint filter clean, do this regularly. Run a empty wash with vinegar and water to remove built up scum.


  • I use one of the pet hair remover rollers, they are great for bits of tissue that go through the wash.


  • I get this too. Use the sticky rollers or battery lint shavers. My mum just literally shaves things with a razor. LOL


  • I get this problem every time I forget to check my husband’s pockets for tissues. We use a lot of the lint rollers with adhesive stickers on them, but I find the dryer will pull most of it off if it’s particularly bad.


  • I use a conditioner/softener in my rinse cycle. This helps to prevent it a bit. Putting clothes in the dryer also helps get rid of some of it.


  • I use an battery operated lint remover which is awesome as I have the same problem …


  • I always put my washing into different loads and do not mix anything that may cause this


  • Fabric softeners help reduce lint sticking to washing, but separating fluffy loads reduces the problem.
